A powerful earthquake in Indonesia has resulted in at least 68 deaths, displacing thousands of residents who are now sheltering in tents and government buildings.

In the aftermath of the disaster, nearly 1,600 aftershocks have struck the region, creating ongoing fear among the population and preventing displaced individuals from returning to their homes.

The high frequency of aftershocks is actively hampering rescue efforts as emergency responders attempt to aid the victims and manage the growing humanitarian crisis.
